tonight's assignment

Tonight's assignment is for Sections 1 and 7 only.  Section 3, being a day behind, will do this assignment tomorrow night.

This assignment was originally discussed in class and is found on the Political Geography PowerPoint, found in my Links sidebar.

Research the following twelve countries and their leaders, by identifying the following:

• name of country
• type of government
• leader's name
• leader's title
• photograph of this leader

The countries: Mexico, Germany, Venezuela, China, United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, India, France, Iran, Afghanistan, Brazil, and Israel.

Use the CIA Factbook for your research, and Google images for the photos. In some cases, there will be two leaders of the country. I recommend listing them both, but pay particular attention to the Head of State.

Post this assignment to your blog. That is the only blog assignment for tonight. This is due before the start of class tomorrow, and is worth 60 points.

Example:

Egypt is a republic.

The leader is (interim) President Adly Mansour.
